Graph Chatbot

Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

Probing sub-eV Dark Matter decays with PTOLEMY

Alexey Boyarsky, Kyrylo Bondarenko

When the Dark Matter mass is below the eV-scale, its cosmological occupation number exceeds the ones of photons from the cosmic microwave background as well as of relic neutrinos. If such Dark Matter decays to pairs of neutrinos, it implies that experiment ...

IOP PUBLISHING LTD2021

One of the major goals for astronomy in the next decades is the remote search for biosignatures (i.e., the spectroscopic evidence of biological activity) in exoplanets. Here we adopt a Bayesian statistical framework to discuss the implications of such futu ...

NATL ACAD SCIENCES2020

Context. Globular clusters (GCs) host multiple populations of stars that are well-separated in a photometric diagram - the chromosome map - built from specific Hubble Space Telescope (HST) filters. Stars from different populations feature at various locati ...

The GOGREEN Survey: A deep stellar mass function of cluster galaxies at 1.0 < z < 1.4 and the complex nature of satellite quenching

Pascale Jablonka, Hung-Hsu Chan

We study the stellar mass functions (SMFs) of star-forming and quiescent galaxies in 11 galaxy clusters at 1.0

EDP SCIENCES S A2020

, , , ,

Time-delay cosmography of lensed quasars has achieved 2.4% precision on the measurement of the Hubble constant, H-0. As part of an ongoing effort to uncover and control systematic uncertainties, we investigate three potential sources: 1- stellar kinematics ...

EDP SCIENCES S A2020

The synthesis of ultralow-noise microwaves is of both scientific and technological relevance for timing, metrology, communications and radio-astronomy. Today, the lowest reported phase noise signals are obtained via optical frequency-division using mode-lo ...

Heterogeneous Target Assignment to Robotic Fiber Positioner Systems

Denis Gillet, Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Matin Macktoobian

The target assignment methods applied to robotic fiber positioners are only applicable to homogeneous sets of targets to be observed. However, different batches of robotic fiber positioners available at the focal plane of a telescope can be simultaneously ...

Towards More Accurate Radio Telescope Images

Paul Hurley, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni, Nezihe Merve Gürel

Radio interferometry usually compensates for high levels of noise in sensor/antenna electronics by throwing data and energy at the problem: observe longer, then store and process it all. We propose instead a method to remove the noise explicitly before ima ...

LEAP: Looking beyond pixels with continuous-space EstimAtion of Point sources

Martin Vetterli, Paul Hurley, Thierry Blu, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni, Hanjie Pan

Context. Two main classes of imaging algorithms have emerged in radio interferometry: the CLEAN algorithm and its multiple variants, and compressed-sensing inspired methods. They are both discrete in nature, and estimate source locations and intensities on ...

Towards Real-Time High-Resolution Interferometric Imaging with Bluebild

Sepand Kashani

Rooted in radio-astronomy, the Bluebild algorithm is a paradigm-changing imager to estimate the sky intensity function. However, current imaging pipelines in radio-astronomy are highly-tailored to the CLEAN-family of imagers, and hence lack the flexibility ...
